This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology provides $204,764 to the College of William and Mary to support research and outreach activities under the Biological Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.074). The award will fund analysis of modern and fossil mollusk specimens from the Western Atlantic region to develop a predictive framework for determining which mollusk species will survive or become extinct over the next few centuries under changing...
This five-year, $589,862 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Environmental Biology will fund research into predicting the survival and extinction of Western Atlantic mollusk species under changing ocean conditions. The Paleontological Research Institute will analyze physiological traits in modern and fossil mollusk samples as well as conduct experimental studies to determine relationships between mollusk physiology and ocean variables. Ecological niche modeling...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Environmental Biology provides $573,942 to the Virginia Institute of Marine Science to deliver products and services aligned with the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). The award will support development of a predictive framework for understanding past and quantifying future species survival and extinction among Western Atlantic mollusks over the next few centuries. Key products include analysis of modern and...
This $536,343 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) was awarded to Rollins College to investigate the effects of rising sea surface temperatures on the distribution, reproductive dynamics, and hybridization of blue mussel species in Hokkaido, Japan. The project aims to (1) re-examine mussel species distributions after 17 years, (2) evaluate changes in reproductive stages, and (3) investigate genetic structures of hybrid populations. It...
This $338,988 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Geosciences Program (CFDA 47.050) supports research by Sam Houston State University to study the lifespans and growth rates of fossil bivalves. The primary objectives are to: 1) examine whether lifespan is a heritable trait in bivalves, 2) determine if body size trends can be explained by changes in life history strategy, and 3) assess if latitudinal life history gradients change in different climate settings. The...
The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth received a $304,351 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) to conduct research on "Collaborative Research: ORCC: Carryover Effects of Multiple Climate Change Stressors in Oysters: Mechanisms and Consequences Across Stages of Ontogeny." The research aims to experimentally test how early life exposure to ocean warming and low dissolved oxygen affects the Eastern Oyster's responses to...
This three-year National Science Foundation Project Grant of $296,242 will fund research into associations between climate shifts and ammonoid turnover across second-tier extinctions during the Early Late Cretaceous greenhouse period from April 2022 through March 2025. The funding supports collaborative research between the University of Nebraska and other institutions to investigate patterns of evolution and extinction in ammonoids, extinct shelled cephalopods related to modern squid and...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant awarded under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) will provide $200,000 to The Research Foundation For The State University Of New York (SUNY ESF) to conduct research on how changes in seawater carbonate chemistry, such as those caused by ocean acidification, impact shell formation in tropical marine bivalves. The 2-year project will characterize the relationships between various carbonate system parameters and shell formation processes in...
This $125,954 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074) supports collaborative research examining the role of mucus in the success and range expansion of Cassiopea jellyfish and related species. Over the two-year award period ending December 2025, the research team will characterize the physical properties of Cassiopea mucus and the motility of plankton and stinging cells within it using mathematical and engineering tools. They will also...
The National Science Foundation awarded a two-year, $174,000 Project Grant to researchers at Hamden, Connecticut to conduct an interdisciplinary experimental investigation of predator-driven evolution of shell structure at different scales during the Mesozoic Marine Revolution. The grant is funded through the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), which supports basic research to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system. Over the 24-month period from April 2022 through March...
